What shows out there REALLY irritate you SOOOO much that you wish that they would NEVER be shown again?

For me it's this show called "ambush makeover". Basically, they take girls that are ALREADY attractive, chop off all their hair, and make em look 15 years older -- and the makeover-ee doesn't get any say in what's going on. Sounds like a great premise, huh. :eek:

Well... in a positive state, the shows that drive me crazy, that is whip me into a frenzy of excitement are the Muppet Show, TMNT (new and old) and various others...mainly cartoons

But drive me crazy as in "Puts me in a rage...." That's a long list..

  1. Power rangers
  2. American Idol
  3. Poke/Digi/Yugimon
  4. Survivor
  5. fear factor
  6. Barney
  7. Jay Jay the Jet plane
  8. uh... any reality show
  9. Living it up with Ally and Jack
  10. Will and Grace
  11. Jerry Springer
  12. The Tracey Morgan show
  13. Sailor Moon (my sister loves it... that's why :grouchy: )
  14. any sleazy court show
  15. all 90000000 versions of Law and Order
  16. Less than Perfect
  17. Mrried to the Kellys
  18. the bachelor/ ette (and the 900 specials they've had recently)

That's all I can think of at the moment

Dharma and Greg is annoying to me, too. There are way too many dating shows out there.

As for positives, if I hear the word "Muppet", I go in a blank tape-locating frenzy :wink:

Good topic 'cuz I have a lot of them. I cannot stand the show "Mama's Family"--literally just cannot watch it for some reason. It's absolutely terrible.

Also, I detest anything like Street Smarts or Elimi-date where they always have the dumbest, most annoying people as contestants. These shows aren't even fun to laugh at. Plus, these kind of shows seem to be on CONSTANTLY.

How sad that we can get hours worth of this crap every week but can't watch TMS or Fraggle Rock on TV?

I can't stand those reality dating shows, and reality shows in general except "American Idol." I have to admit, that one has me hooked. Or did, when it was on. Besides, it's responsible for introducing me to Clay. :flirt: I can't believe "Power Rangers," in whatever incarnation this is, is still on the air. I used to watch it my my little brother for the first couple years every once in a while, just so we could make fun of it. How it ever lasted this long is beyond me.
